Do cerebral motivational asymmetries mediate the relationship between handedness and personality?

Katie B. Huber et al.

Summary: Research suggests a connection between handedness and personality, with cerebral motivational asymmetries potentially mediating this relationship. Participants completed multiple survey measures, and results indicated that approach/withdrawal motivation partially accounts for the link between handedness and personality.

A meta-analysis of sex differences in animal personality: no evidence for the greater male variability hypothesis

Lauren M. Harrison et al.

Summary: This study found no significant differences in personality between sexes in non-human animals, and sexual size dimorphism did not explain the variation in observed sex differences in personality across different taxonomic groups.

Lion-tailed macaques show a stable direction and reinforcement of hand preference in simple reaching tasks over several years

Barbora Kubenova et al.

Summary: Research on hand preference in non-human primates suggests that hand preference is stable at an individual level and is reinforced with age. Hand preference is stronger in postures where both hands are free for foraging.

Linking personality traits and reproductive success in common marmoset (Callithrix jacchus)

Michaela Masilkova et al.

Summary: Animal personality can affect reproductive performance, as demonstrated in captive common marmosets. Female personality traits significantly influence inter-birth intervals and fecundity rates, while male traits have limited effects on reproductive success.

Age, but not hand preference, is related to personality traits in common marmosets (Callithrix jacchus)

Michaela Masilkova et al.

Summary: This study investigates the proximate mechanisms underlying animal personalities and suggests that brain lateralization may be one of these mechanisms. The study measures brain lateralization in common marmosets through hand preference testing and evaluates personality through coding observed behaviors. The results reveal three personality dimensions and show that age, rather than hand preference or sex, significantly predicts personality scores. The link between brain lateralization and personality remains equivocal and dependent on assessment methods.

Temporal consistency and ecological validity of personality structure in common marmosets (Callithrix jacchus): A unifying field and laboratory approach

Vedrana Slipogor et al.

Summary: Research on animal personality focuses on the temporal consistency of behaviors, stability of personality structures, and comparisons between laboratory and field conditions. Findings show that personality structures of common marmosets remained similar over four years in captivity, with significant differences observed in individuals who changed their social status. Under field conditions, personality structures somewhat resembled those in the laboratory.

Paw preferences in mice and rats: Meta-analysis

Martina Manns et al.

Summary: Mice and rats show significant hemispheric asymmetries at the individual level, with a preference for either the left or right paw. However, unlike humans, population level asymmetries were not observed. These results highlight the importance of considering individual hemispheric differences in both basic and clinical neuroscience.

Between-task consistency, temporal stability and the role of posture in simple reach and fishing hand preference in chimpanzees (Pan troglodytes)

Sergio Diaz et al.

Summary: Studying hand preferences in chimpanzees provides insights into human hemispheric specialization. The research found temporal stability in simple reach behavior, with only partial between-task consistency. Posture does not significantly affect the strength of hand preference.

Personality, subjective well-being, and the serotonin 1a receptor gene in common marmosets (Callithrix jacchus)

Alexander Weiss et al.

Summary: Studies of personality traits in common marmosets reveal factors such as Sociability, Dominance, Neuroticism, Openness, and Impulsiveness, with higher-order factors of Pro-sociality and Boldness. Relationships between personality factors and well-being align with definitions, but there is no significant association between personality and genotype. The structure of common marmoset personality appears to vary depending on rearing or housing conditions that require further investigation.

Potential applications of personality assessments to the management of non-human primates: a review of 10 years of study

Max Norman et al.

Summary: Studies on primate personality have increased in recent years, with a focus on health, welfare, and conservation implications. While there is a strong taxonomic bias in the research, there is progress in integrating personality data into animal management practices. The assessment of personality may benefit social group management, enrichment practices, training protocols, health and welfare monitoring, and conservation planning for endangered species.

Brain Lateralization and Cognitive Capacity

Lesley J. Rogers

Summary: Lateralization in the brain enhances cognitive capacity by avoiding duplication of functions on the left and right sides. While individual lateralization is common in species, directional or population-level lateralization, where most individuals have the same direction of lateralization, may not provide additional cognitive benefits. Each hemisphere of the brain processes information using different neural processes, allowing for multitasking and increased cognitive capacity.

Limb preference and personality in donkeys (Equus asinus)

Sergio Diaz et al.

Summary: This study investigated the link between limb preference and personality in donkeys, revealing a positive relationship between age and Agreeableness, and the prediction of handling difficulty based on limb preference. More research is needed to clarify population-level limb preference bias in donkeys and the relationship between limb preference and Agreeableness.
